Maria Island National Park - Guided Day Walk
Known to the puthikwilayti band of aborigines, wukaluwikiwayna/Maria Island is rich in natural and cultural heritage. People from many nations have visited this island that sits just off the Tasmanian mainland. Frequented by the Aborigines, named by the Dutch, explored by the French, transformed by the English, styled by an Italian and farmed by a South African - the human history is only the surface. For those intrigued by geology, flora and fauna, Maria is a wonderland of discovery with towering mountain peaks, dreamy white beaches, bird-rich forests and ancient, fossil-rich cliffs. ​ INCLUSIONS: Transport to and from Hobart: safe transport in mini-bus/4WD, Scenic Encounter Maria Island Ferry, Morning tea/coffee, 2 Guided short walks: The Painted Cliffs and Fossil Cliffs Walks, Passionate local guides, Seasonal local picnic lunch, Wildlife Spotting: Wombats, Kangaroos, Birdlife, Darlington World Heritage Convict Site, Countless photo opportunities, National Park Fee.
